Summary: glibc makefile should support DESTDIR
Product: glibc
Version: 2.12
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: P2
Component: libc
AssignedTo: drepper.fsp@gmail.com
ReportedBy: adam@yorba.org
The glibc makefile does not support the standard DESTDIR mechanism defined by
the GNU coding standards:
http://www.gnu.org/prep/standards/html_node/DESTDIR.html
DESTDIR support would make life easier for glibc packagers.

"You have to do more work so that my life is easier."
Right... There is already an equivalent mechanism. I'm not going to throw
everything away to follow some document which postdates the existing solution.

Aha, I see - the INSTALL file mentions an 'install_root' variable which has the
same purpose. I hadn't noticed this.
Would you accept a patch to replace 'install_root' with 'DESTDIR' in the
interest of improved build system compatibility between packages?

No. Only a completely egotistical person would suggest that. Just for your
benefit everyone else relying on install_root would have to change their
scripts. That's not going to happen. Live with it.
